"It's for the best of the server"
...?
"i'm just doing the server a favour by getting rid of you"
...?!
" maybe the rumors were right "
Stop...
" You only mined with us so the mods dont catch you using X-ray "
I SAID STOP!
Cold sweat trickled down his forehead, as he shot up, panting heavily, breathing ragged as he tried reaching out for the water in the darkness, accidently knocking it down while swishing his hand over the nightstand,
CRASH
the loud sound echoed in the room making Div flinch momentary as the room went quite only filled with the rapid gasping coming from his mouth as he tried getting the air into his lungs. After a moment of bliss annoyances his breathing slightly steadied yet still shaken up. As he looked out the window admiring how the moonlight spilled like milk across his room from the huge window he had in his room, he glanced around the dark room trying to adjust his eyes to the darkness as he squinted for a while vigorously blinking as he caught a momentary glimpse of his white butterfly which tends to stay at the side oh his head, only leaving it's owner at night to fly around and Div lets it, he knew it will always come back to him when no one else will, the tree's rustled softly in the cold breeze of the night. Right...its night, as he gulped on his saliva feeling sharp pain emitting from his throat, like needles being poked inside his throat, he needs water. now, as Div shuffled under the cover before eventually leaving the warm comfort of his sheet and pressing his feet on the cold group, as he took a sigh before getting up.
it was the worst thing he ever felt this whole week
the pain went throughout his body like a electrical shot as he stumbled back onto the bed and lifted up his foot to inspect what was piercing into his skin. Glass. multiple shards reflecting the sliver of the moonlight bestowing upon it and it redirected the light elsewhere; Div shook his head. Right he needs to focus of his bleeding feet which...is his fault he forgot he had knocked down the glass, he tried taking out the shard with bare hands but as expected his pricked himself in the finger instead, he had no experience in aiding or bandaging since it was usually Saturn and Pika who helped him with it. Oh wait, why didn't he think of it before!
Div stretched out his arm away from the bruise currently pooling tad bit amount of blook on his pristine white sheets. as he grabbed onto his communicator kept on the edge of the nightstand, it was covered in monochrome of various types of variation of grey, black and white butterfly and flower sticker, an odd liking for a man but, Hey!, don't judge a person for liking them!, the communicator had few scratches and has been through a lot, sure but if it works it works.
/you whisper to PikaTM: hey can u come over to my place with a med?????
/Failed to conduct this command,
huh?
...
/you Whisper to Saturn_720: Saturn, if ur awake could u come over??
/Failed to conduct this command,
what...?
oh, yea
he is banned from the server long ago wasn't he...because he was...well
selfish, narcissist, toxic, delusional, unhonest, freeloader, manipulative, opportunist, drama magnet, self-pitier, disloyal, gainer, untrustworthy, controlling, critical, noxious, negative, unlikeable, a terrible teammate, oh just how i could go on and on.
its been a while I suppose, maybe a few months, a year i cant recall
he was alone...well pika and Saturn are still his friends but they aren't here, they are...somewhere, probably in Saturn's cabin where the soft yellow lanterns are hung creating a heartwarming comfort vibe, the smell of fresh wood and that stew pika usually makes for them wafting in the air as the cottage core 'aesthetic' which Saturn adored just...fitted, felt right. Or maybe they both are camping in the woods and Saturn rambling about the constellations and how he wished he could have a star at his house, it sounds like a stupid wish but...it was still adorable too see his eyes twinkle when pika and I got him a star themed shawl on his birthday, maybe a year ago, or 2?, when was his birthday anyways?, how old did he turn this yea-
A sharp jolt of pain snapped him from his thoughts, as he looked down and saw he just pushed the shard deeper, right...he should just, waste his dignity and wobble to the bathroom to grab the first-aid kit from there, at least no one here can see him so, vulnerable.
"ow-owowowowowowowo OWW"
"man why does it hurt so much, its just few pieces of glasses, nothing too bad." Div thought to himself as he sat on the toilets cover picking out the shards with tweezer wincing at the slightest movement, it took brutal 2 hours to finally get rid of all the glass, small,big,tiny,microscopic,digustigly big one deep inside, u name it. As Div splashed some water over his feet to get rid of the blood which dripped and dirtied the floor, he'll clean it later, he hastily applied some ointment hissing slightly at the sharp burn, Pika was gentle when he did this it was mostly him coaxing him a lot to treat his wounds. Div took the gauze from the kit and wrapped them around his feet and after a few mins his feet were mummified, yippee?, i guess,
Eventually Div got up he stumbled on his stance and he clutched the sink to prevent himself from falling, wincing at every step he took he went back to his room with the support of everything around him, he took the other side since the left one was still covered in shards, he flopped onto the bed sinking into it as something, red? caught his eye, he slight propped himself onto his elbow to glance at it, the small pool of blood rested there untouched, turning darker by the passing moment as if it wasn't brown enough, as he gulped his saliva, in nervousness?, he was never good with tolerating blood. JEEZ the random spike in his arid throat resurfaced again, he hadn't gotten water, he hasn't changed the sheet, he hasn't sweeped the floor, but he was to spent to even move a muscle, he let sleep take him into a deep slumber.
Groaning I shifted, light suddenly pierced into my face as the warmth seeped into my body, I scrunched up my face pulling the covers higher, but i suppose it was in vain since I was already awake now, cons of a light sleeper u can say.
I got up from bed after some moments, grabbing my communicator out of instinct first thin in the morning, see his group chat where his other 2 lovely friends who oh so dearly missed him in the server, Div scrolled up on their messages, seeing them try to talk to him, his hand hovering over the keypad typing something before deleting is after a few moments, switching of the communicator and placing it back onto the nightstand. I padded my way to the kitchen, and if I were to be honest there are perks of singleplayer worlds like at least no one is seeing me walk like a penguin across my house, if they were here they would never let me live this done, or Pika might just tie me to a chair to stop me from further more getting hurt, I chuckled dryly at that thought.
"oh yeah, i needed water"
"It's...quite lonely, i wish i had someone with me"
I thought to myself, plopping onto the couch cradling a warm mug of milk in my hands, watching the heat fog rise up, quietly listening to the hollowing winds, sounds like a storm is approaching?, I mean it hasn't rained in a while, might be beneficial for my crops Afterall I guess, I sat my stance as I sipped at the warm liquid sending a relief down my throat just looking out the window, watching the birds take shelter, Parrots...they are quite intriguing.
"AND, Avians are the smartest bird species, they honestly look pretty cool, wish i could find one," Saturn pouted
"Saturn, we love u but we both know that u dragged us on a 3 DAY expedition to find a parrot and the only thing we came back was with broken armor" pika sarcastically said as he chopped the vegetables, "but c'monnn, you both enjoyed it didn't you Div?," passing Div a mug of warm milk, which he accepted, "it was a waste of time, i seriously could have done better things" Div answered already bored of their conversation as he toyed with the handle of the mug. "Important with what exactly?" Saturn spoke after a moment, annoyed. "i have Videos to make mind you, they just dont generate on their own you know?" Div already chugging at the milk, half burning his tongue. "your video's of course that allll you care about right?, it almost seem like you don't even want to spend time with u-" "Saturn, stop, its fine Div is just doing wor-" "PIKA, you seriously approve of thi-" "CAN YOU BOTH JUST SHUT UP" silence simmered at the sudden outburst from Div, as side glanced both of them "now if you will excuse me i have video's to make" Div stood up grabbing his satchel and heading out "Div, but the food's not ready yet?, just eat then leave"
"no, just etl imh vea"
"Saturn eh is ruo deri-!"
"WELL eh t'nesod erac about su, does e-"
BANG
The sudden thudding on his door, jolted him out of his deep thoughts, he flinched so hard almost dropping his mug, Jeez, is the storm this ba-
BANG
okay THAT isn't natural is it, "Who is there?"
...
"Can you open the door?" a deep yet soft voice came from the other side as Div sighed and settled his mug on the coffee table standing up almost halfway towards the door before his body went fridged and his movement came to a halt, the gears in his mind moved until the realization dawned upon him.
Isn't this a singleplayer world though...?
static ran through Divy's brain as his breathing went ragged, he was Scared
"Helloooo?, are you gonna open??" That snapped Div out of his trance as he quickly went to his chest and opened it quietly taking out his diamond sword he probably spent weeks mining, it made him appreciate when Saturn used to do this stuff and regear them up, maybe he was underappreciative of his friends, yet they both...still sticked around.
KNOCK KNOCK
Divy shook his head as he stood up and swiftly went over to the door crouching, he held his sword close gently pressing his hand on the cold knob of the door slowly turning it, not to alert the person on the other end, it will be real iconic if no one was there, maybe he might finally be going insane?
click
Div pointed the sword at the neck of the player not spareing their face a glance as he dashed and pinned them to the ground, the rain soaking them both sending a shiver down his spine, "WHO ARE Y-you...Shuppet?" as Div finally looked at the person's face, the same pristine white fluffy hair, and those tangerine like eyes wide and dimly glowing under Div's confused and annoyed gaze, they stare at each other for a long moment before one of them spoke up, "hi...Div, quite a...interesting way to finally meet you again"
the rain continued pouring at Shuppet's hair making them stick to his neck and forehead in an uncomfortable way. The soft glow of the lanterns casting shadows and spilling it's soft orange tinted light across the grey place creating a odd spot in the greyness, like a wolf in a herd of lamb, the glow showed her features dimly, the way a bit of mud and few herbs stuck to her short hair, and a clip looking a lot like the one Sobr used to own or still does I wouldn't know, I pushed those thoughts down as quickly as they came.
"h-how did you get her- NO better question, Why are you here?!"
"Well... interesting thing I-,"
